From what I've read stand alone (non-USB) miners don't work on BU. I found this (http://www.rubicite.com/Tutorials/AntMinerS3Tutorial.aspx) tutorial for the S3. Any chance following it will get an S3 to run BU?
Thanks.

Any help for nanoprobe? He can't access the members-only section, so he is asking here.

I've asked about then S3 several times & have been told it won't work, as far as I know you need a USB Connection to run BU. The R3's or Rock 100 will work though ...

After much research that was the same conclusion that I came to. Kinda sux cuz a friend of mine was going to sell me his for a good price. Looking at Rock 100 now.
Thanks STE\/E and thanks zombie67 for the bump.

Not really sure, which is why I said nothing earlier, but maybe bfgminer like E-30 and DD had to use for the BitFury blades would work in this case too. Those are IP based devices as well and use a Proxy setting to send the info in to the pool.

Don't know if you were asking me but my friend sold the miner to someone else. Thanks for the offer. Maybe someone will figure it out and post a tutorial.
